I'm trying to find out if there are currently any resources available for teaching people how to be safe online. As in, how to not get a virus, how to pick out phishing emails, how to recognize scams. I'm sure everyone on this list knows these things, but a lot of end users don't. I'm trying to find a way to teach these things to people who aren't too technically savvy.
I found this one to be good, especially when targeted at teenagers: "Own Your Space--Keep Yourself and Your Stuff Safe Online" Digital Book for Teens by Linda McCarthy http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=87583728-ef14-4703-a649-0fd34bd19d13&displayLang=en If you are teaching Enterprise or college-level end-users, I suggest purchasing ACM membership which will give you access to the Security Awareness videos from ElementK. The SafariBooksOnline library subscription also contains numerous high-quality books and videos on the subject.
